County of Lexington providing the treat with no hidden tricks

Lexington, SC (Paul Kirby) – The County of Lexington is providing a very affordable treat for anyone looking for some company around the house. They want you to know that there are plenty of furry friends at their Animal Shelter on Ballpark Road that have love and need love. Now, as a special treat for Halloween, they are running an adoption special that makes finding you a furever friend even more affordable. They have dropped the adoption fee to just $15!

Their social media post says it all. “You and your kids aren't the only one that will be hoping to get a lot of treats this spooky season!” In that post, they are referring to the large number of domesticated pets at the shelter that would love to be curled up at your feet over the coming years. Sure, while being a guest of Lexington County, the animals get plenty of food, a safe place to sleep and play, and as much attention as possible, but the shelter staff can only do so much. The shelter will never be able to compete with a loving, safe, furever home.

From now until Halloween (Thursday, October 31st), the Lexington County Animal Shelter will be hosting the Howl-O-Ween adoption special! Remember, all adoptions are only $15. There is a limit of two pets per person! All their adoptable animals are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and given a full vet checkup. That alone would cost you well over $100 anywhere else!

Shelter staff members will help you make sure you're a good fit for one of these loving animals. You still have time to run by and check out all the lovable furbabies. The shelter is located at 321 Ballpark Road in Lexington. There weekday hours are 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. You can even go to the shelter’s website at https://lex-co.sc.gov/departments/animal-services/animals-adoption, scroll down toward the bottom, and follow the directions to see the adoptable pets they have. How easy is that!
